SECTION 4
4.1 gENERAL
To ensure the efficiency of the boiler, carry out the regular maintenance instructions detailed below.
If any fault is found during these operations contact your Fulton representative.
CAUTION
It is essential that regular checks are made to ensure that scale buildup is not
taking place within the boiler. Such checks will ensure that water treatment
being applied to the boiler feed water is effective.
The lower hand hole doors should be removed after one month of operation and the interior of the
boiler thoroughly examined. If scale or sludge build up is observed, it should be removed and the
water treatment supplier advised.
New gaskets must be fitted every time a handhole door is removed.
Subsequent interior examinations should be carried out on a regular basis until satisfactory conditions
are observed. Thereafter, inspections should be carried out at three monthly intervals.
WARNINg
Prior to the commencement of any work requiring the removal of cover
plates and the opening of the control panel box, the electrical supply
to the boiler must be isolated.
